Advocating for Social Change
As countless reports daily of injustices flood my television screen, and my social media feed brings my attention to yet another racist or homophobic attack, my heart breaks a little bit more. How are we still living in a world where people judge others for who they are, and where people are attacked both physically and verbally for being an authentic version of themselves? Now more than ever I feel an intense weight resting on my shoulders, to be part of the change, and offer support to others whose mental health is damaged by the overwhelming news reel during this global crisis.
